ForFarmers results for the first half of 2024
Like-for-like growth of volume and strong increase in profitability
Pieter Wolleswinkel, CEO ForFarmers:
“The positive trends of the first quarter have continued, with a significant increase in profitability in the second quarter as well. We strengthened our market positions in this first half of the year, resulting in a satisfactory volume development. The right product and market choices underpin this result and our local approach is valued by customers. The integration of Piast in Poland, acquired early this year, is well on track and we are satisfied with the performance. We are also pleased with the announcement of the intended acquisition of Van Triest Veevoeders, which specialises in co-products. We are convinced that this will enable us to play an increasingly important role in providing sustainable feed solutions. With this acquisition, we fully focus on a market with clear growth potential. I am proud of this strong performance in the first six months and the contribution that everyone at ForFarmers has made to it. Despite macroeconomic and (geo)political uncertainty, we are confident about the future.”
